We will be holding four Visit the Vulcan Days in 2015, the first taking place on Sunday 26 April.

The other dates are: 21st June, 23rd August and 27th September.

Our Visit the Vulcan Days are extremely popular with enthusiasts and the general public alike. Members of the VRT Team will be on hand to give guided tours of Vulcan XL426 and for an additional fee visitors can climb inside the aircraft’s cramped cockpit.

We would like to announce that the Trust's 2015 AGM will be held on Saturday the 11th of April. This year's guest speaker will be Rod Dean who will be talking about the Spitfire. More details to follow

This Saturday we had a productive day on the aircraft, Greg and Jamie were busy in the morning with a defect on the parking brake lever. The lever had become easy to release over time which isn't ideal. They found two defects which are simple to resolve, the metal guide block that the lever sits in with brakes applied was worn on one end so it released without much effort. Also the spring that sits on the lever needed some attention to guide the motion correctly. The parts are now off ready to have replacements made.
Paul with the help Nick were busy lubricating the flying control rods that run through the aircraft, the rollers get a bit dry over time which can make operating the system a bit stiff. With the AAPP completed, I spent the day cleaning contacts on the relays for the frequency changer system. Andy and Steve were at the workshop giving our hydraulic rig some attention. It looks very new and shiny! 1 week 2 days ago.
